NCT ID NCT07146516

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jul 01, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study tests a laser treatment called OSC/SS to prevent retinal detachment in people with Stickler Syndrome, a genetic condition that raises the risk of vision loss. About 500 children and adults will receive the procedure in one or both eyes and be followed for 5 years. Researchers will compare their outcomes to the natural course of the disease to see if the laser helps keep the retina attached.
